Combining a business view with an understanding of passion and impact.

Tanja, CEO Tacosa 360, is a builder by nature and thanks her dad for instilling the skills and mindset needed to figure out how to make things happen from an early age. Her innate desire to build served her well as a product leader delivering products and strategic projects across AI & machine learning, Fintech, CPG, health & wellness. And when she led product management at multiple SaaS companies and built domestic and international teams.

Sharing her experience expanded to coaching startups on their pitches, messaging, and product management and consulting with universities developing their entrepreneur incubator and entrepreneur education program as well as a MBA and undergraduate adjunct professor.

Grounded in a vision that “All people have access to the resources they need to reach their full potential.”, Tanja now focuses on collaboratively sharing her business acumen with the nonprofit sector, enabling nonprofits to build, sustain, and thrive while balancing impact and profit for sustainability.
